Flat hinges? what source?

[NPMR]

I recently made a cockpit table and to reduce its stored size cut it in half and reconnected the halves with brass hinges.

As a minor irritation, The hinge section sticks up (they are butt hinges) and I'd like to make the hinge completely flush with the tabletop. I've seen this type of hinge on 'shop-bought' products but can't seem to find a source - Internet/chandlers/architectural ironmongers etc. Anyone any ideas?

They are called "counter hinges". I bought some good quality ones from:-

Strada Architectural Ironmongery
2a Robinson Road
London SW17 9DJ
Tel: 020 8542 1185

As far as I remember they had 2 sizes

Problem with some brass hinges is that the pin is made from mild steel. You might want to check ( maybe with a magnet ) if table exposed.

Might be a bit too big though.
